Honda’s CR-V Hybrid Racer packs hybrid IndyCar power.
With hybrid power coming to IndyCar in 2024, pairing the brand’s 2.2-liter with a new hybrid system made sense from a development standpoint. While Honda did design this system while investigating solutions for IndyCar, the automaker was clear to note that this particular hybrid system will not find its way to its IndyCar program.
“Our goal is to look at different types of technology,” said president of Honda Performance Development David Salters in an interview. “We’re sort of, especially in racing, technology agnostic. So we just want to try different types of energy sources.""In this case, the specific reason it has supercapacitors here is power. They’re really good at high power.
The Honda CR-V Hybrid Racer is slated to make public appearances at a number of IndyCar events in 2023. This includes a public debut at the series opener at St. Petersburg, as well as appearances at Grand Prix in Long Beach, Birmingham, Mid-Ohio, Toronto, Nashville, Portland, and Monterey. Honda will also bring the 800-hp SUV to a number of select events throughout the year, with the goal of getting people excited about the possibilities associated with electrification.
“That’s what Honda does,” said Salters. “We are crazy makers. Fun to drive, car culture, and racing is in all of our DNA.”
